(6,282 posts)I read this story (and BNR's as well) to my girlfriend (registered Democrat, voting soon in NJ) and she laughed out loud! Pretty pathetic, she says. I happen to agree.

(1,238 posts)This is not sexism.
This is Hillary ducking a debate she made a pledge she would do. She is not the presumptive nominee. She shouldn't be backing out of her word, and it's not sexist to point it out, nor is it sexist for other campaigns to take advantage of her missteps.

(58,724 posts)Why refer to Sanders and Trump with the phrase "white man" but Hillary with just "woman" (without any adjective about her race)?

You are giving the actual issue a bad name by trivializing it.

(4,407 posts)Everything that is remotely bad for Hillary is sexism. Or racism. Even though she's white. "How will breaking up the banks end sexism or racism?" Hillary supporters, including the trolls, have lost the right to be taken seriously when they claim sexism. And of course, this waters down the term so that real issues of sexism will be ignored and laughed at.
Hillary and her supporters are doing far more to degrade gender relations and issues than anyone else.

Excellent work by team Brock!
Fucking idiots ... and she's paying them for this!
